Unique Visiting Card.
Mme. Johanna Gadski has brought
to this country a fad that has becom*
oulte the rage in Germany, where il
was introduced by no less a personagt
than the crown princess herself. II
is a new form of visiting card, coa
talnlng not only an elaborately en
graved border, but a silhouette of th«
person It represents. The custom callt
for a design appropriate to the hold
er's station. Thus, in Mme. Gardski'a
case the prima donna's head is framed
in a border of laurel, while a tyre
forms the base of the design. The
card is not only unique but exceed-
ingly pretty and effective.
THOUGHT CAME IN TIME.
Or Generous Friend of Hospital Might
Have Been Offended.
Lakeside hospital is probably Sam-
uel Mather's chiefest hobby.
If there is a deficit in the hospital
finances at the end of the year Mr.
Mm her is usually only too happy to
write out a check that will more than
make it up.
This has gone on from year to year
until whenever anything is broken or
damaged about the place the nurses
and other employes look upon the loss
as just that much out of Mr. Mather's
generous pocket. If a nurse drops a
saucer she will smile and remark:
"Poor Samuel!" Among many of the
nurses the remark is almost a byword
whenever anything goes wrong.
Nut long ago, so runs the story,
Mr. Mather was at the hospital visit-
ing a member of his family who was
ill. He was unfortunate enough to
lean against a vase of flowers on a
table. The vase fell to the floor and
broke.
Two nurses were standing by. They
exchanged glances and one of them
mused absent-mindedly "Poor Sa—"
And then she happened to think.-—

The Barn Complete.
When in pasture sheep will always
sleep on the highest and driest parts
of the field. 'This should be kept in
mind in selecting the site for a sheep
shed. Warm close sheds are likely to
be injurious to the health of the sheep
as the temperature of their blood is
high and the fleece keeps in the body
heat. Crowding is to be avoided, espe-
cialy at the feeding rack. The ac-

Light for Hogs.—Darkness and
health in the hog business are never
found in the same place. The mortal
enemy of all disease germs is the
bright sunlight and this at some time
or other should have access to every
corner of the feed lot and breeding

dampness brings on bad health and
the losses sustained from this source
are hard to estimate.

ROSY AND PLUMP
Good Health from Right Food.
"It's not a new food to me," re-
marked a Va. man, in speaking of
Grape-Nuts.
"About twelve months ago my wife
was in very bad health, could not keep
anything on her stomach. The Doctor
recommended milk half water but it
was not sufficiently nourishing.
"A friend of mine told me one day
to try Grape-Nuts and cream. The re-
mit was really marvelous. My wife
«oon regained her usual strength and
to-day Is as rosy and plump as when
a glil of sixteen.
"These are plain facts and nothing
I could say in praise of Grape-Nuts
would exaggerate in the least the
Tftlue of this great food."

FATTENING AND
MARKETING HOGS
By Prof. W. J. Kennedy, Iowa
Experiment Station.
The age at which hogs should be
fattened will depend more or less
upon the market demands and the
locality. In some countries and in
different sections of the same country
we find that there are differences in
the market demands. As a general
rule in this country the fat or lard
hog has been the most popular.
When such is the case it is better to
market hogs at the weight of from
300 to 400 pounds. These seem to
meet with the most popular favor of
the buyers.
In other sections of the country
and in other markets where the bacon
type of hog is preferred over the fat
or lard hog, they must be marketed at
an earlier age. The best weight for
the bacon hog is between 160 and 200
pounds. They do not require to be
nearly as fat as the fat or lard hog;
Bt 111. on the other hand, a bacon hog
is by no means a thin animal. They
should have a covering of about one
inch of fat over the back. They
should be deep sided and long sided,
and must be firm in quality. Where
the bacon hog is desired, as a gen-
eral rule it will be found most profit-
able to have the hogs fattened and
finished for market at about five and
one-half or six months of age.
Where the fat or lard hog is desired
the most profitable age to market in
order to meet the requirements of the
market would be about eight to ten
months. Hogs of this age should
weigh In the neighborhood of 300 to
350 pounds. As a general rule, how-
ever, it may be stated that the great-
est and especially the most econom-
ical gains are made on the younger
animals. This is one point in favor
of t/ie bacon hog.
The season of the year at which
the fattening should be done will de-
pend upon various conditions. In a
great many instances, hogs are fat
tened during the fall and early winter.
In other instances they are fattened
during the spring and early summer.
Generally speaking the most econom-
ical gains can be made during the
early fall or spring months. The
weather is then not too cold nor too
warm—in fact, about right for the
best gains. In real cold weather a
considerable amount of the feed is
used for the production of heat to sup-
ply the heat required for the main
tenance of the animal body.

Many Women Think They Are
Doomed to Backache.
It Is not right for women to be al-
ways ailing with backache, urinary
ills, headache and other
symptoms of kidney
disease. There is a way
to end these troubles
quickly. Mrs. John H.
Wrght, 606 East First
St., Mitchell, S. D.,
says: "I suffered ten
years with kidney com-
I plaint und a doctor told me I would
never get more than temporary relief.
A dragging pain and lameness in my
back almost disabled me. Dizzy spells
came and went and the kidney secre-
tions were irregular. Doan's Kidney
Pills fid me of these troubles and I
feel better than for years past."

Attractive Wrap for Child.
nurse's arms. The empire back or di-
rectoire rever of mother's best wrap
are closely followed in the develop-
ment of the coat made for the girl not
yet in her teens.
The same may be said of trimmings,
buttons and colorings. Not in many
seasons have children worn such
striking hues as this year. Those re-
liable shades, navy blue, garnet and to-
bacco brown, have been replaced by
colorings once deemed "old," such as
taupe, grays like London smoke, faded
raspberry red, and even that peculiar
brown, known as Catawba.
Theso are enlivened by touches of
bullion trimming—particularly gold.
For the bullion braid frogs and tassels
have quite generally replaced those of
silk on very dressy garments.
A word nbout fur coats. These are
an excellent investment in a fam-
ily where there are several children,
for they can bo handed down one size
to another as the children grow. In
climates where the winters are severe
they are especially desirable. For the
baby In short clothes who still rides in
a coach, a favorite skin is coney, which
is very much like soft white rabbit
skin.
For a baby the puro white is of
course preferable. For children of
three and upward It can be dyed gray,
brown or black. A very stunning com-
bination for a girl of six Is a full greater astonishment
length loose coat of this black fur with I "Don 1 11 beilt a"
a velvet liat showing a dash of flame
color or scarlet.
Pony skin and caracul cloth are also
used for children, but none of these
are as light and yet warm as the coney
skin. A fur coat for a child should be
very plain without fancy braid or but-
tons, etc.
The navy blue chinchilla cloth, so
long a standard cloth for school coats,
reefers, etc., has been replaced tills
season by gray chinchilla.
Broadcloths, especially those in two
tone effects and heavy weights, are
used for general wear, while the satin
finished fabrics are suitable only for
the child who may have several outer
garments. Sensitive mothers of babies
in long clothes have two coats, an in-
ner and outer garment.
Our illustration shows a model suit-
able for a child from four to eight
years of age. This is a model of a
loose coat that can be slipped on over
fancy dresses. This especial model
was seen evolved in heavy French
serge in dull gray and the trimmings
were of broadcloth in a lighter shade
of gray and gilt frogs trimmed the
front. It requires very little skill to
make this coat as it is cut in only two
pieces.
WRAPPERS NO LONGER WORN.
FASHIONABLE HAT.
Loose Indoor Gown Is the One Now
Most In Favor.
Wrappers are no longer in vogue.
They may be worn when one is dress-
ing or sleeping or attending to minor
details in the house, but they are not
the garment to be put on for other
hours.
The morning wrapper for private
wear is now an exceedingly pretty af-
fair. It has nothing in common with
the calico Mother Hubbanl of other
days. The kimona has settled all that.
It has given its shape to all these gar-
ments. Therefore, the indoor robe is
graceful and is made of pretty, soft
fabric. But it has its place and its
hours. The loose indoor gown Is the
one now popular for evening wear
when there are no callers.
The busy woman, the tired woman
and especially the woman who works
during the day at any other order of
task does not want to put on a tight
gown every evening. She wants one
that is comfortable and artistic.
The new ones which are generally
worn are cut on empire line and do
not require a corset under them. They
are in one piece, fastened down front
or back, and have a yoke and stock of
lace or net.
Pockets Now the Style for Girls.
Neither bag, sachet, pocket book nor
cardcase is carried by the truly tail-
ored girl these days. If she has the
proper kind of gownmakmr all these
things may be stowed away in her
pockets. A slash in the deep belt
affords a receptacle for change and
small memoranda. A deep treasure
gathering pocket is hidden safely be-
neath the front panel of the sheath.
The girl of to-day swings her empty
hands and shows 110 signs of secret
burdens.
A study in gray hat of satin tendu
"gris acier," the crown covered with
soft silver-gray plumes and a spray of
silver roses.
Turbans and Muffs.
There is some comfort in th<
thought that when the huge fur tur-
bans do go out of first style, which is
only a matter of a few weeks, they
will come In excellently for muffs. In
this way a woman will not feel that
she has thrown away money.
A good many of them already feel
this discouragement when they re-
member the $20 paid for a good fur
turban the first of the year, and the
thousands now selling at three dollars
apiece.
This is the kind of thing that makes
a woman of moderate means glad she
waited until the first rush of the sea-
son was over to put her dress allow-
ance into a hat or a suit.
Rather Remarkable Certainty.
The lawyer for the plaintiff had
finished Ills argument, and counsel foi
the defense stepped forward to speak,
when the new Judge Interrupted him.
His eyes were wide open and filled
with wonder and admiration for the
plea of the plaintiff.
"Defendant need not speak," he said.
"Plaintiff wins."
"llut, your honor," said the attorney
for the defendant, "at least let me pre
sent my case."
"Well, go ahead, then," said the
Judge, wearily.
The lawyer went ahead. When he
had.finished the Judge gaped In even
he exclaimed.
"Now defendant wins."—Green Hag.
Rapid Transit.
Mrs. Blunder had Just received a
telegram from Indiu.
"What an admirable Invention the
telegram is!" she exclaimed, "when
you come to consider that this mes-
sage has come a distance of thousands
of miles and the gum on the envelope
isn't dry yet."—Tit-Bits.

NEW IDEA IN FANCY WORK.
Darning Cotton Makes Product Both
Pretty and Artistic.
Most women who consider the irk-
some darning they must do and the
fascinating embroidery they love to do
as irreconcilably separated would be
surprised to hear of using darning
materials for fancy work. Not in mak-
ing artistic darns—though, ns a mat-
ter of fact, every darn should be a
thing of beauty—but by using darning
cotton for solid work on linen and kin-
dred materials.
One very pretty parasol worked in
this manner was recently seen. The
sunshade itself was an inexpensive,
natural colored linen one, costing Just
one dollar, and it was embroidered
with a heavy design of dots and wide
scallops, in ordinary brown darning
cotton.
On one side was worked the owner's
monogram in a very light tan. Around
the design was a line of cotton, with
two strands of linen caught up by the
needle at distances of one Inch. The
effect was striking, and the work was
easy, to say nothing of the infinitesi-
mal cost.
Keep the Garters Crossed.
Some French corsetieres are aduls-
ing their customers to cross the gar-
ters which extend from the extreme
front of the corset. This is Bald to
prevent the corset's wearing away
at the sharp point of the front steel—
which sometimes happens while the
garment is perfectly good in other re-
spects. The crossing of the garters In
no way intereferes with the ordinary
use of the limbs in walking, especially
in these days of narrow skirts. II'
each garter has two elastics, the outer
ones may go down straight In the
usual way, the Inner ones crossing!
to the opposite leg and fastening to
the stocking an inch beyond the ouitw
garter.
